Hi @mnayef95, Could you simplify your sample code? The current project includes many dependencies, making it difficult to isolate the issue related to FlutterFire. Please provide a minimal reproducible example using only the necessary FlutterFire plugins.

[tpucci]

It seems RECAPTCHA deep link are broken since Flutter's 3.27 deep links flag change.

Workaround:

Info.plist

	<key>FirebaseEncodedAppId</key>
	<string>$(FIREBASE_ENCODED_APP_ID)</string>

AppDelegate.swift

  // Handle Firebase Auth post RECAPTCHA deep links
  override func application(
        _ app: UIApplication,
        open url: URL,
        options: [UIApplication.OpenURLOptionsKey: Any] = [:]
    ) -> Bool {
      if let firebaseEncodedAppId = Bundle.main.object(forInfoDictionaryKey: "FirebaseEncodedAppId") as? String,
         url.scheme == firebaseEncodedAppId {
          // Let Firebase handle the URL
          return true
      }
      return super.application(app, open: url, options: options)
  }

FYI I've tried Auth.auth().canHandle(url) but it returns false... I don't know why
